Certification

Professional standards and a level of quality assurance are important to creating a successful business. The Bessenbacher Co. does more than talk about the importance of these qualities. Since the inception of our company, we have worked hard to anticipate the needs of a growing industry, as well as invest both time and money in the programs and organizations that shape the credit industry.

International Associaiton of Commercial Collectors, Inc.

This international trade association is comprised of 237 collection specialists and 160 commercial attorneys. With members throughout the U.S. and in 20 international countries, IACC is the largest organization of commercial collection specialists in the world.


Who are you going to trust? It's a big question with big consequences. Start by looking for an IACC certified collection agency like Bessenbacher. You can filter out 95% of collection agencies by applying this single criteria and leave yourself with nothing but the best from which to choose.

IACC certification is not easy to achieve - that's why so few agencies have it. An agency must complete a rigorous application and audit process. Each must carry a minimum of $50,000 in client protection bonds, and submit business and financial records to an independent auditor to assure compliance with operational standards and the IACC's Code of Ethics. Staff training standards must be met and periodic audits are required to maintain certification.

Steve Bessenbacher led our agency through this rigorous process. Bessenbacher's certification is your assurance that you are working with the people with the highest ethical and professional standards.
